0.10r + 0.20b = 24
3r = b + 20....b = 3r - 20
0.10r + 0.20(3r - 20) = 24
0.10r + 0.60r - 4 = 24
0.70r = 24 + 4
0.70r = 28
r = 28/0.70
r = 40 <=== there are 40 reds
0.10r + 0.20b = 24
0.10(40) + 0.20b = 24
4 + 0.20b = 24
0.20b = 24 - 4
0.20b = 20
b = 20/0.20
b = 100 <=== there are 100 blues
Answer:
x= -4,-14
Step-by-step explanation:
Try first to solve the equation by factoring. Be sure that your equation is in standard form before you start your factoring attempt.
A 40 degree angle: go from the right positive side of the x-axis and go left (left is positive degrees) forty degrees, which is a little less than halfway in quadrant 1.
Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
If Beth had 1/4 a box of candy, and she ate 1/2 of the remaining candy, she would have 1/8 because the equation is calling for you to multiply 1/4 by 1/2 or divide 1/4 by 2. To multiply two fractions, you multiply straight across. When you do so, 1x1 equals 1 and 4x2 equals 8, leaving you with an answer of 1/8!
